Because of the
potential lack of parking spaces in Bar Harbor in
July, special arrangements have been made for parking for the
cruise. Parking will be at the Connors-Emerson School at 11 Eagle
Lake Road in Bar Harbor. Oli's Trolley will provide transportation
from the school to Bar Harbor Whale Watch. The trolley will make
several trips from the school to the dock between 1:00 p.m. and
2:00 p.m., and will provide return transportation to the school
parking lot after the cruise.
Driving directions to the school:
Follow Route 3
across the causeway onto Mount Desert Island. At a
fork, go left (following Route 3) and continue following signs
toward Bar Harbor. Continue on Route 3 until you come to a stop
sign on Eagle Lake Road. Turn right. Immediately on your right
you'll see the sign and driveway for the Conners-Emerson School.
